HIV is certainly character-building. It's made me see all of the shallow things we cling to, like ego and vanity. Of course, I'd rather have a few more T-cells and a little less character. Randy Shilts

First off, I am proud to say I am none of the examples, and lean towards none of them, as I don't know anything about any of them; outside their very wealthy and polished staff reports and PR releases. Cliff, you have to be kidding to think that I would fall for this survey.

As for myself, I have been called both liberal, and conservative, it all depends on the person doing the judging, and the issue we are talking about.

I would probably stand with Lincoln, and Eisenhower, and end up being called a "Centrist".

I prefer independent thought, and fiscal responsibility. I want to be involved in my neighborhood, (except for those assholes across the street that don't respect anyone, or themselves, and their kids are delinquints in the making). I want to support welfare for those that really need it, ( haven't seen but about three of them in the last 50 years).

You see Cliff, there is no way I can relate to the list you have given, due to the fact that there is not one person on the list I would want to emulate.

Sorry.

IN Love.

The Bible contains 6 admonishments to homosexuals,and 362 to heterosexuals.This doesn't mean that God doesn't love heterosexuals, It's just that they need more supervision.Lynn Lavne

I would probably stand with Lincoln, and Eisenhower, and end up being called a "Centrist".

Now, who was this Eisenhower fella? Well Tim if you can't choose between one, I say flip a coin. Me, I'm a toss-up between Maggie and B' Liar. I flipped the coin and it said I was a Gordon Brown. Damn! So I pissed on the coin. Down with Brown. Lucky for him though, I can't vote.

I think I drink like a Kennedy, Fuck like Clinton (Ya, I wish) and fight like the pit bull Bush. No Kerry traits in me at all and Iím not an ass wipe puppet like Powell. (Whom I use to respect and would have voted for president)

Registered independent here. I look at the person ('s philosophies) rather than their party affiliation.

One problem with some (not all) Democratic candidates is they are rather 'soft' on crime.

In local elections I tend a bit more towards Republican candidates because Democrats seem to favor increasing taxes...property taxes speciificially. I am tired of having to pay for and subsidize County services which I've never used and never will (eg. schools.) I think there should be a differential so that people with one, three, five, kids in schools pay a higher property tax than someone such as myself who has no children.

I'm not anti-tax...but I think taxes since they're mandatory...should go only for necessary items and not 'nice to have' stuff that isn't truly needed. Let those things be funded by those that use them.
